Amanda,

the problem is not when the Silverlight application sets the date, it is when the user enters the date.

The application receives the SelectedDateChanged notification, but the date is not correct in the DatePicker control.

Hi,

you can try to format the DatePicker's displaydate.

for example:

this.pickdate.Text = this.pickdate.SelectedDate.Value.ToString("dd.MM.yyyy");

Hello,

I'm in a country where the date format is JJ.MM.YYYY.

I have a DatePicker in a Silverlight application. The current date (November 6) is displayed as 06.11.2008. I now would like to enter manually a date in the DatePicker:

If I enter 5.11.2008, the DatePicker displays 05.11.2008: correct.
If I enter 5.11, the DatePicker displays 11.05.2008: incorrect, this is May 11 and should be November 5.
